Chapter 108
After finishing their meal,
the exploration with Berio Walker began in earnest.
Whoosh!
The exploration started at a sea cave that revealed itself far past the jagged reefs along the coast of Isilia.
Berio, who had summoned several Light spells to float around them, was following the path while touching the moss growing near the reefs.
“Kalliant, do you see the color of this moss?”
Berio said, pointing to the moss clinging to the cave walls.
“The colors are different.”
Though it was faint and dark, there was a clear distinction between the deep, dark shades and the slightly lighter ones.
Berio smirked and said,
“Though it’s irregular, these are clearly traces of human contact. I suspect it dates back a thousand years. I feel a sense of excitement, yet part of me is afraid.”
“….”
Khal remained silent instead of answering.
At first, he had thought Berio was just a foolish human.
– I have been traveling to explore history for a specific reason. To be precise, I am searching for Magical Heritage.
When asked why he was curious about such things, Berio had given a bitter smile.
– It is to ensure that humanity never repeats its past mistakes. Furthermore, there are things that must never be misused. Whenever I discover such ruins, I summon Headmaster Petro Stanislav to establish a barrier that no one can pass through. However, my role is strictly limited to discovery.
Berio’s voice had been filled with conviction.
And sensing that conviction, there was one thing Khal couldn’t understand.
